The genus 'Candidatus Phytoplasma'was proposed to accommodate cell wall-less bacteria
that are molecularly and biochemically incompletely characterized, and colonize plant …

Simple Summary Phytoplasmas are vector-borne and graft-transmissible bacteria that cause
various plant diseases, leading to severe economic losses. Since phytoplasmas cannot be …

Several economically relevant phytoplasma-associated diseases are described together
with an update of phytoplasma taxonomy and major biological and molecular features of …

Numerous yellows-type diseases of plants have been associated with wall-less prokaryote
pathogens–phytoplasmas over the last 40 years. These pathogens are not grown in axenic …

Phytoplasmas are cell wall-less bacteria that cause numerous plant diseases. As no
phytoplasma has been cultured in cell-free medium, phytoplasmas cannot be differentiated …

A summary of the research carried out on phytoplasma-associated diseases 50 years after
their discovery is presented. The great majority of this research was devoted to classification …

Plant pathogen presence is very dangerous for agricultural ecosystems and causes huge
economic losses. Phytoplasmas are insect-transmitted wall-less bacteria living in plants …

The trivial name 'phytoplasma'has been adopted to collectively name wall-less, non-helical
